Chapter 3: Itachi enters the battlefield!

A large explosion came from a gigantic castle with metal legs that was standing in front of the Fairy Tail guildhall. "They managed to destroy Jupiter!" Macao shouted now wearing a white open coat, his hair was now slicked back, and he had grown a stubby beard, he had an eyepatch above his left eye. Everyone from Fairy Tail let out a cheer. While they were pushing back some shadow phantom creatures.

Meanwhile inside the castle aka Phantom Lords guild hall, Natsu who now was wearing a black west, baggy white pants and his usual scarf, landed among some rubble, with a blue cat next to him that was his long companion and best friend, Happy. And another man landed on top of some rubble in front of Natsu. He was a young man with long, two-toned hair of black and white tied into a Japanese-style top knot on the back of his head, with the black portion overlaying the front and the left side of his head, leaving the smaller white portion concentrated on the left, he has three horizontal black bars markings passing across the ridge of his nose and both cheeks in a linear formation. His clothing consisted of a ninja-like attire consisting of a long, orange reddish gi with reddish fur on the collar, and the sides being made of thick fishnet and some fishnet on his arms, he had a simple shirt under his gi, and he was wearing a pair of loose black pants, he was also wearing a simple pair of black boots. This man was Totomaru a member of the Element 4 of Phantom lord.

"Incredible…" Totomaru muttered in awe at Natsu's power as the Jupiter canon was destroyed.

"Listen here pal. Fire ain't gonna listen to people telling it what to do. It responds to your heart's will." Natsu said slamming his fist into his palm.

Outside of the castle. "Not bad there Natsu!" Macao said with a smirk.

"Without Jupiter, we'll manage things somehow!" A young woman standing next to Macao named Laki said. Laki is a slim young woman, she has pale lavender hair set in a bowl cut-like style, with her fringe covering the left part of her forehead, her eyes are brown and they have a simple pair of glasses over them, and she has a dark red ribbon on the top of her head. Her clothing consisted of a light-colored coat reaching down below her waist, she was wearing a dark red tie around her collar, she was dressed in tight-fitting dark pants tucked inside light-colored boots.

"Now's our chance to push them back!" Cana said with her magic cards in her hands. "Wipe out the enemy!" She shouted to which everyone let out a war cry.

Meanwhile deep inside the castle in a place that looked like a command center, with some hooded people bearing the Phantom Lord mark using some magic circles, while in the center of the room sat a man on a throne. It was Phantom Lords master Jose. He was a tall slim man with long straight black hair reaching down to his shoulders and he had a thin mustache. He has got a long sharp face, vaguely pointed ears, prominent eyelashes and dark-collard lips. His clothing consisted of a flamboyant coat with a high collar, he had two prominent wings similar to bat's on his back, he also had a wizard saint medallion around his neck with two light ribbons falling down from it. "The bratty children got their spunk back. Start up the giant." Jose said with an evil smirk on his face.

Back with Natsu, Happy and their opponent Totomaru. Natsu covered his fists in flames as rubble fell around him. "You can't manipulate my fire any longer! It's your turn to get blown to smithereens, Phantom!"

"Ugh!" Totomaru grunted when suddenly something began to move that made him lose balance.

Back with Jose in the command center. "Stabilizing elements!" One of the hooded people said.

"Activating lateral balance lacrima." Another one said.

"It awakens!"

On the outside, the castle started to transform while inside the castle with Natsu. "Wh-What the!?" Natsu questioned as the floor began to tilt to the side.

"It's tilting!" The blue talking cat with angel like wings named Happy said.

"They plan to do that?!" Totomaru questioned. "This area isn't laterally stabilized!"

"Laterally?" Natsu questioned.

Outside with the Fairy Tail members. "Now what are they planning?" Laki questioned as everyone stared in shock as they witnessed the castle turning into some giant robot.

Back with Natsu. "The giant has awakened! It's over for you guys!" Totomaru said with a victories smirk but then gained a confused expression when he saw our fire dragon slayer that was about to vomit.

"Natsu, hang in there!" Happy flew closer to his friend.

"No way…" Natsu muttered as he was about to hurl.

Back outside. "What is that thing? I mean, seriously…" Cana said with a look of horror as their hopes of winning seem to grow less and less.

"It's a giant… A magical giant!" A young man named Loke said. He was a young man with short orange spiky hair, he was wearing a pair of azure-tainted sunglasses. He's clothing consisted of a green coat with a wide collar with spiky white brownish fur around the hood, under his coat was an orange shirt with menacing skull on the front, he wore a pair of light dark loose pants with several pockets.

"You should grovel and beg for forgiveness, you damn kids. Then you will learn your place! Feast on despair until the end of your pitiful lives!" Jose's voice was heard.

The phantom ghost like creatures began to attack the Fairy Tail members. "The shades are coming back!" Said a young man named Alzack. He had long black hair that covered the right part of his face. His outfit consisted of a long brown poncho with tasseled edges together with a shirt and torn pants, he had a dark belt with gun holsters. And he was now holding a revolver in his right hand.

"A giant and ghosts? What are they doing?" A young woman named Bisca questioned holding two Thompson submachine guns in her hands. She had long straight green hair that reached down to her lower back, her eyes are brownish purple, large breasts, and she's wearing red lipstick. Her clothing consisted of a cowboy hat, around her neck was a polka dotted neck scarf, she had a plain blue one-piece dress, and she was wearing reddish brown boots.

"We'll concentrate on the Shades! I'm sure that Natsu will find a way to stop the giant!" Cana said thinking that the pink haired dragon slayer was one of their last hopes.

"Sure but…" Wakaba said.

"Natsu and transportation…" Macao said making everyone pale as they recalled Natsu's only weakness.

The ghosts charged at the Fairy Tail members. "Here they come!" Cana shouted bringing forth some magic cards.

Fire style: Fireball!

A large blazing ball of fire collided into the wave of ghosts wiping them out. "I always figured they would attack us eventually. The question was only when." Itachi's voice was heard as he leaped down standing in front of the others.

"Itachi! Finally, you're here!" Cana said with a grin as the hope was regained.

""Thank goodness!"" Several members said in unison and began to cheer.

Itachi looked towards Cana, Macao and Wakaba. "Where's the master and Erza?"

"They're both wounded. The master got all of his magic power drained away. And Erza tried to block the Jupiter canon." Cana replied as she and the others gained a sad expression that they were unable to help either of them.

"She blocked the Jupiter canon? She's gotten stronger then." Itachi said with a hint of pride towards Erza, and then he focused his attention at the giant. "I will go in after Jose and end this little guild war." Itachi said and leaped down to the water, and ran towards the giant.

"Who's that?" Loke questioned as he joined the guild after Itachi had left for his two yearlong mission.

"He's Erza's older brother, Itachi Uchiha. He's an S-class mage and is even stronger than Laxus." Cana replied with a grin as they all looked at Itachi who ran up the giant's leg heading inside it. "There's no way we will lose now."

Inside with Natsu. "Natsu, sheesh!" Happy said shaking the motion sick dragon slayer.

"You get motion sick? You can't eat fire as you are now. I'll burn you to a crisp with my strongest magic!" Totomaru said with confidence in his voice, as an orange magic circle formed in front of him.

"Natsu!" Happy shouted.

"I'll blow you to bits, Dragon Slayer!" Totomaru shouted when suddenly he's body got covered in ice. "Eh? What the…"

"If you're a man…fly to the heavens and become a star!" Elfman and Gray arrived at the scene, and then Elfman punched the now ice cube that was Totomaru into the sky with his beast arm.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Totomaru's voice was heard as vanished into the sky.

"You guys…" Natsu said struggling to get up due to his motion sickness.

"Too cool! Gray, Elfman!" Happy said in a cheerful tone.

"How pitiful Natsu." Gray said looking down on his so-called rival.

"If you're a man, then you should make the car sick!" Elfman shouted with his manly spirit.

"So, are these the remains of Jupiter?" Gray asked looking at the destroyed lacrima that Natsu wrecked completely.

"Aye!" Happy replied.

"Good job there." Gray complimented.

"Oh! It stopped all of a sudden!" Natsu said now able to stand without getting sick.

"I'll take a look outside!" Happy said as he flew outside and saw the giant forming a large magic circle in the air.

"Letters? No…" Alzack said while shooting at some ghosts.

"That's… No way!" Bisca said also shooting at the ghosts.

"It's a magic circle!" Laki shouted.

Itachi walked around the side of the giant and looked at the magic circle that was forming in the air. "Abyss Break. A forbidden magic." Itachi uttered having studied multiple spells through the books at the guild. Itachi knew this wasn't good and kept moving inside of the giant. As he landed inside he saw about 50 members of Phantom Lord waiting for him, all smirking thinking they had the advantage with their numbers. "Hello there." Itachi said with a small smile as they charged at him.

"At that size, we're in big trouble! Magnolia itself will be destroyed in the wave of darkness!" Loke said.

…is what they said!" Happy said to Natsu, Gray and Elfman as we were suddenly back inside the giant.

"What the heck?! I don't believe it!" Natsu shouted with an angry expression.

"We have no choice but to split up and find the power moving this giant. Well at least Itachi got back just in time to help." Gray said.

"Man… Out of the frying pan and into the fire���." Elfman said.

"Okay then, let's do it!" Natsu said.

""Yeah!""

Meanwhile at the almost destroyed guild hall where Mirajane who was inside while Cana stood outside. Mira had used her magic to changed her appearance into that of a blond haired girl with her hair tied up into a small ponytail on the right side in a blue ribbon, with brown eyes. She had changed her appearance into that of Lucy Heartfillia the girl that recently became a member of Fairy Tail and Phantom Lords target as they've been given a mission by her father to retrieve her. "Mira, how long until that magic spell activates?" Cana asked.

"About 10 minutes, I think. We have to destroy its power source somehow." Mira replied.

"Our men inside must be thinking the same thing." Cana said.

"There are people other than Natsu in there?" Mira questioned.

"Itachi, Gray and Elfman." Cana replied.

"Elfman? But why?" Mira questioned in a worried tone for her younger brother.

"Why? He also wants to…"

"It's no use! Elfman can't fight. You know that, Cana!" Mira said worried for her little brother knowing how traumatized he was after Lisanna's death.

"He can fight. He helped us when we raided them before, remember?" Cana assured with a kind smile.

"Fighting with their lackeys is one thing, but if he goes up against their big guns… As he is now Elfman can't…" Mira uttered hating the fact that she was weak now and couldn't do anything to help.

"Hey, Mira…When that happened, you, Elfman, and everyone too…we all suffered deep wounds. However, in his own way, he's forced himself to move forward. I know you realize this." Cana said trying to comfort the former mage.

"…." Mira got silent as she moved outside.

"Hey!" Cana said.

"Mira, what are you doing?" Bisca questioned.

"Don't it's dangerous!" Alzack warned.

Mira stepped in front of the giant looking like Lucy. "You people are looking for me right? Stop your attack on the guild this instant!"

"Be gone…You damn imposter!" Jose's voice was heard. "I knew it from the start! I knew that Lucy wasn't there." Jose said as Mira turned back to normal.

"Damn it…" Cana cursed.

'How powerless am I really?' Mira thought clenching her fist. When an explosion came from the giant's side making her direct her attention to the source.

At the source of the explosion where several knocked out Phantom Lord members. With Itachi standing on a pile of them holding one of them by the collar. "Will you tell me now where Jose is?" Itachi asked with his sharingan spinning around.

"H-He-He's at the control center at the top…. Please, don't hurt me…" The man said shaking in fear as sweat ran down his forehead.

"Thank you for your cooperation." Itachi said and tossed him to the side and walked towards the exit of the room.

Meanwhile with Elfman. "The man, Elfman, will protect Fairy Tail with his life!" Elfman declared running through a hallway when suddenly.

"Oui!" A voice was heard. Elfman turned around and saw a slim man sticking up from the floor. He had green hair pointing upwards, a tiny pointy mustache, a monocle above his right eye. He was wearing a brown suit with a ragged collar, over a white shirt with a red tie, and he had a short cape attached to his elbows linking them. This was Sol another member of Element 4. "Salut!"

"An Element 4?" Elfman questioned removing his coat showing his red sleeveless shirt.

Back outside. "Elfman." Mira muttered in a worried tone when suddenly a green magic circle appeared below her.

"Oh no! Mira!" Cana shouted as Mira vanished through the circle and appeared in between two of the giants claws.

"I detest girls like this who try to deceive me. Witness your friend's final moments as I crush her slowly." Jose's voice was heard.

"Mira!" Cana shouted.

"Damn it, what the hell!" Macao said.

"Mira-chan!" Wakaba shouted.

Back with Elfman. "My name is Sol! Please call me Monsieur Sol!" Sol introduced himself as he was wiggling back and forth.

"Perfect timing. I'll force you to tell me how to stop this giant." Elfman said lifting his right arm above his head. "Beast Arm! Black bull!" Elfman's arm turned into that of a black bull.

"Oh? Just your right arm? Are you sure?" Sol asked making Elfman narrow his eyes. "It seems that the rumors are true." Sol had a dark look on his face that made Eflman growl.

"I've had enough of your blabbing!" Elfman charged at Sol delivering a punch with his right arm, Sol dodged making Elfman collide his fist with the ground making it crack up.

"Didn't you have a little sister?" Sol asked with an evil smirk as he leaped back.

Sable Dance!

A lot of dust gathered around Elfman in the form of a large wind. Sol then appeared behind Elfman making Elfman swiftly turn around.

Roche Concerto!

The rubble below Elfman rose up hitting Elfman around his body. Elfman leaped back. "Non, non, non…" Sol vanished below ground and then popped out in front of Elfman with his body wrapping around Elfman's right arm like a snake. "Salut!"

"You really creep me out." Elfman said in disgust as he tried to pull Sol of his arm.

"Non, non, non…Three nons and you're in quite a sad state." Sol mocked.

"Unhand me, Monster Sol!" Elfman growled trying to push Sol off of him.

"Monsieur!" Sol corrected and unwrapped himself from Elfman's arm and kicked him in the chin.

'This guy's way stronger than he looks!' Elfman thought as he rubbed the spot on his chin.

"Speaking of which…You failed at a complete body takeover and went out of control…" Sol said with an evil smirk on his face as he leaned his head to the side.

"Enough! Beast Arm Iron Bull!" Elfman shouted not wanting to be reminded of what Sol was talking about, he leaped up in the air and charged at Sol with his right bull arm now turning into iron. But he stopped in when a clay statue of Lisanna appeared in front of Sol facing Elfman. "Lisanna!"

"I apologize. But as you were stepping on me previously, I read the gap in your memory." Sol said.

"Why you…" Elfman said gritting his teeth in anger over the fact that Sol was using the memory of Lisanna as a weapon against him.

"What a precious little sister of yours. I wonder where she might be now? Oh, how rude of me. She's buried in the cold, dark ground, isn't she? Oh, how sad… How could you do such a cruel thing?" Sol said mocking Elfman who deactivated his Beast Arm as his body was trembling.

Elfmen looked at the clay statue of his little sister when it suddenly opened its eyes with the one on the left looking like Sol's. "Elf-niichan, my brother?" The statue said in a mix of Lisanna's voice and Sol's

Elfman let out a war cry as a magic circle appeared. "Non, non, non. You can't do that. What would happen if you made a debacle of a full body Take Over, and you lost control? Did you forget what you did last time?!" Sol said as several clay versions of Lisanna popped out from the ground.

"Elf-niichan." Lisanna's voice in a mix with Sol's came from the clay's. "How cruel…How could you forget? How cruel… Why? Don't do it Elf-niichan…." The clay versions of Lisanna said in unison. And Elfman fell to his knees while trembling even more struggling to hold his tears back.

"You shouldn't try to do what you can't handle. It seems your magical power has weakened considerably." Sol said.

"You coward…If you're a man, then fight me fair and square, fist to fist!" Elfman said in a growl as he clenched his fists.

"If I'm a man, you say? Non, non, non…I cannot let that pass. Not from someone with no right to question the manliness of others." Sol said as he gathered all the clay Lisanna's into a whirl of clay. "Trash like you who killed his own little sister!"

Platre Sonate!

A magic circle was formed in front of Sol sending a fist made out of stone that crashed into Elfman sending him flying into a wall that collapsed, showing Mira in the claws of the giant right outside. "Elfman!" Mira shouted making Elfman open his eyes and look out the hole in the wall. "Elfman!" Mira shouted again.

"What? Why? Why are you there? Nee-chan!" Elfman shouted.

"Oh? So she is your elder sister? Which means she was once the feared Devil, Mirajane-sama? Lost so much of her magical power…What a pity! And who could be to blame for it?" Sol mocked Elfman who was looking in horror at seeing his sister in so much pain, and he was fill with even more guilt over what happened with Lisanna. "She is being punished for attempting to deceive us. It won't be long until she is crushed."

"Run, Elfman!" Mira shouted.

"Let my sister go!" Elfman shouted.

"You will lose your elder sister right before your eyes, just like the younger. And that is because you are an impotent wizard who does nothing but spout bluffs about manliness!" Sol said as he made a magic circle that sent pressure at Elfman. "As a gentleman, I cannot forgive you. I will give you eternal suffering. Sealing Magic, Merci la Vie! You will become one with the land, and continue to wander for eternity inside your own unpleasant memories-" Sol said when suddenly the ceiling above them collapsed onto Sol, with Itachi standing on top of the rubble with his palm placed on it having sent a surge of his own power through it to make it collapse.

"Your torturing of my friends ends now." Itachi said in a dark tone as Sol's body was covered by a pile of rubble.

"Itachi!" Mira shouted in relief knowing that Elfman would be safe now.

Itachi looked towards Mira and saw her in the claws of the giant. "I will be there soon. Just got to say something to your brother first." Itachi said and walked in front of Elfman who was on his knees shaking his eyes filled with guilt.

SLAP!

A slapping sound echoed through the area as Itachi slapped Elfman on the right cheek, Elfman looked dumbfounded as he looked up at Itachi. "Did that wake you up?" Itachi asked with a stoic expression.

"I-Itachi…" Elfman muttered and looked up to face Itachi.

"What are you doing. Do a full body Take Over and finish that clown already." Itachi said which brought shock to Mira whom didn't think Itachi would do this.

"But I-I can't…" Elfman muttered out of fear of going berserk again.

"Look out there! Your sister is in danger! And here you are doing nothing! Are you that afraid to use that form that you're even willing to see Mira die?!" Itachi scolded Elfman, and it was for his own good, Itachi was trying to make Elfman get over what happened and try and learn and control his power.

"Non, non, non… That's no good interrupting me like that." Sol got up from the rubble about to attack Itachi.

"Shut up." Itachi said with a stoic expression and punched Sol so that he flew across the room.

Itachi went back over to Elfman. "Didn't you vow that you would never see your sister cry? Well she's crying right now." Itachi said making Elfman widen his eyes and look over at Mira who had some tears running down her cheeks. "I know that you're scared that what happened to Lisanna is going to happen to Mira because of your full body Take Over. But you have grown so much stronger since back then. You won't fail again, this time you have help with you." Itachi said and stretched his hand out and gave Elfman a friendly smile. "So, how about it. Go beat up that bastard that made Mira cry." Elfman grabbed Itachi's hand and was pulled back up while letting out a powerful glow.

"It's true, I vowed never to see my sisters tears again!" Elfman said as the light became more powerful.

"That light. No Elfman don't do it!" Mira shouted. "Itachi stop him!"

"You underestimate your brother. He's stronger than you give him credit for." Itachi said.

"Who was it that made her cry?!" Elfman shouted.

Sol got up from the rubble. "Damn that Demon Eyed Itachi. Huh?" Sol looked over to Elfman. "It's impossible! You are not capable of doing a full body Take Over!" Sol said as he stepped back when the light intensified. "Incredible!" Sol said when the light died down revealing a beast with horns, sharp teeth, long arms with claws, the beast was covered in thick fur, his hair has become more like a mane, dark hooves, and spikes that looked like the horns only they were on his shoulders. "O-Oh, my… That's!"

"A full body Take Over. Beast Soul!" Mira said as Elfman let out a mighty powerful roar.

"Non, non, non!" Sol was sweating and shaking out of fear. "With non of three, you misunderstand me! I, Monsieur, gave you such a harsh trail for you to finally overcome your difficult past, bonsoir! You are indeed a man among men, Elfman! I Monsieur, believed you could overcome it! Right? Well then, if you'll excuse me…" Sol slowly backed away trying to escape, but then Elfman swung his arm at him sending him flying in the air. "How dare you!"

Platre Sonate!

Sol send a huge fist made out of stone that crashed into Elfman. "Non, non, non… Don't let your guard down now." Sol said and then froze when the giant beast that was Elfman appeared behind him and slammed his fist down on him repeatedly while Sol kept saying. "Non! Non! Non! Non! Non! Non!" Elfman kept punching him until Sol looked so beat up that he got knocked out. Sol's soul appeared to be flying out of his body but Elfman grabbed it and pushed it back inside the body. "Non, at least let me fall unconscious!" Sol cried as Elfman lifted him up and kept punching him.

"Elfman!" Mira shouted trying to make Elfman stop and get him back to normal.

Itachi leaped over to Mira. "Sorry for being so late."

"Why didn't you stop him!?" Mira questioned in an angry tone.

"Don't worry he's fine. He's in complete control." Itachi replied activating his mangekyou sharingan making two spectral skeleton arms appear around. Itachi used them to force open the claws of the giant holding Mira, and then lifted her up bridal style. "Anyway are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. But are you sure Elfman's okay?" Mira asked in a worried tone.

"Why not ask him yourself?" Itachi said as him and Mira turned their attention to the hole in the wall where Elfman in his beast mode stood. "Don't you think that's enough games? You're making her worry over nothing." Itachi said making Elfman back up a bit and his pupils were suddenly visible from the once pale beasty eyes

"Oh, um, sorry nee-chan. You must have never wanted to see me like this again. Because I wasn't able to control it, Lisanna… But now I have become strong enough to protect you and Fairy Tail!" Elfman said holding his fist up to his chest. Itachi leaped back to Elfman with Mira in his arms, when he put her down she instantly went over to hug Elfman.

"Lisanna's death wasn't your fault. You were trying your best to protect us both back then." Mira said as Elfman turned back into his normal self.

"But I failed. Lisanna died." Elfman said in a depressed tone.

"But I'm still here." Mira said with a comforting smile as she tightened her embrace.

"Nee-chan…"

"We decided together remember? To live on in her stead. To work as hard as we could." Mira said still hugging Elfman.

Tear began to run down Elfman's cheeks. "Nee-chan! I'm so glad you're all right!"

Mira had stopped hugging Elfman and looked at him with a smile. "And how is crying going to help anything?"

"But!" Elfman cried.

"Thank you Elfman…" Mira said and then noticed Itachi was over with the unconscious Sol.

SLAP!

Itachi slapped him awake. "Tell me how to get to the command center." Itachi said in a dark tone with his sharingan spinning.

"It's at the head of the giant." Sol replied looking like he was hypnotized.

"Thank you, now go back to sleep." Itachi said and Sol fell unconscious again and Itachi walked past Mira and Elfman and looked out of the hole in the wall. "Just as I thought."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Mira asked.

"Look at the giant. What's different about it now?" Itachi said making both Mira and Elfman look at the giant and then they noticed that the process in making the magic circle has slow downed.

"It's moving slower." Mira pointed out.

"Yes, it seems the Element 4 are the key of stopping it. Take them out and it will stop." Itachi said.

"Ah! Elfman how many of the Element 4 are left?" Mira asked.

"Um let's see um… That'd make two left, I guess?" Elfman replied recalling that Totomaru and now Sol had been defeated.

"You guys and the others will deal with the element four, I will go after Jose." Itachi said and leaped out of the wall and worked his way up to the giant's head.

"He's right, let's hurry! The other two are bound to be somewhere inside the giant!" Mira said.

"R-Right!" Elfman said as they rushed their way further inside the giant.

Itachi was running up the side of the giant. 'Attack my guild hall fine, but when you attack my guild mates like master Makarov would say. You better except a war!' Itachi thought when he felt a stabbing pain in his chest making his eyes flinch a bit. 'I better also go to that old hag with the herbs once I'm done here.' Itachi thought as his sickness had gotten worse since he left two years ago.

Down with the others. "Thank goodness… It looks like Mira's safe." Cana said then she fell to her knees and let out a deep sigh of relief.

"Cana!" Macao shouted.

"I'm fine." Cana assured. "Focus on the enemy in front of you and protect Fairy Tail!"

"You don't know when to quit…" Macao said and dodged one of the ghosts and punched it with his fist covered in a dark blue flame making it vanish.

Cana threw some magic cards with lightning and fire at a few ghosts making them vanish. "Everyone, don't clump together! Spread out and fight!"

""Right!""

"Oh yeah, where's Loke?" Laki questioned.

Alzack reloaded his revolver. "He said something worried him, so he headed to that place."

"Say what? He skipped out?" Wakaba questioned.

"If Abyss Break is cast, then that place wouldn't be safe either." Alzack replied referring to the place where they decided to keep the new comer Lucy Heartfillia safe.

"I see…" Laki said.

"He has good intuition." Alzack said.

Meanwhile inside the giant with Natsu. "I just thought of something good, Happy!" Natsu said as he ran through a hallway with Happy flying next to him.

"What?" Happy questioned.

"If we beat up Jose, then that'd end the fight, right?" Natsu said with an excited look on his face.

"What are you saying? Jose is just as powerful as our own master! Someone like you could never beat him, Natsu!" Happy pointed out.

Natsu let out a small pout. "But Gramps isn't here, so who else is gonna?" Natsu was really determined to fight someone strong, to prove himself as the strongest.

"Natsu, you idiot. I was trying not to think about it, but you made me remember!" Happy shouted remembering now that Makarov and Erza were out of the playing field, then there weren't anyone left to face Jose.

"Wha-?"

"That's right…Master's gone…Erza's gone…No matter what happens in this war, in the end Jose will- Wait Itachi is here! That's right! He could defeat Jose!" Happy shouted in relief as hope once again was regained in the blue cat's eyes.

"Hey what about me?!" Natsu questioned with an angry look thinking Happy would at least have a little faith in him.

"You are nowhere near Itachi's level! Itachi is stronger than Erza! And you are weaker than Erza!" Happy shouted back at Natsu pointing out the painful facts to Natsu.

"What was that?!" Natsu shouted with flames coming out of his mouth as they kept running through the hall until they reached a room, when a wave of wind flew towards Natsu. Natsu dodged by jumping up in the air but he fell on his head when he landed.

"The sorrow!" A whirlwind appeared in the middle of the room. When the wind vanished it revealed a tall large man with tanned skin, he had his eyes covered by a blindfold. His clothing consists of a large loose open green coat sporting with white edges also with a wide collar, under his coat he has a yellow shirt which is more like a robe which almost reaches down to his feet, he has a large red neckless composed of several crosses linked together by small beads and in front of the neckless is a small red blindfolded skull. This man was the leader of the Element 4, Aria. "The wings of flame, clipped…Falling to the ground…Ah, and all that's left is the corpse of a dragon!"

"Ah?" Natsu questioned with thick marks on his head while clenching his fist as this guy was really starting to annoy him.

"Natsu, he's one of the Element 4!" Happy warned.

Aria looked up so that you could see tears running down his cheeks. "My name is Aria! I'm at the top of the Element 4! And I have come to hunt me a dragon!"

"A wind wizard. I'm already used to you guys." Natsu said.

"Erigor's nothing compared to him!" Happy warned.

Meanwhile with Gray. Gray crawled up from a broken window when he noticed it had begun to rain. "Was it raining before?"

"Drip, drip, drop…" A voice came from behind him to see a young slender curvaceous girl with blue hair, midnight blue eyes, snow skin complexion. Her blue hair was long and tightly curled at the base. Her clothing consisted of a sapphire blue coat, a cream colored furry trimmed navy blue shawl with a pure white doll like thing attached to it, and a Russian Cossack hat. She carried a pink umbrella with heart symbols on it. "Yes… Juvia is the rain woman, one of the Element 4." Juvia said in third person. Drip, drip, drop…"

"You're one of the Element 4?" Gray questioned using his cool dark expression.

"I never would have thought that two of the elements would have been defeated. But do not underestimate Juvia and Aria." Juvia said.

"Sorry to break it to you, but I don't go easy on people who hurt my friends. Even if they're women or children…" Gray said with a dark cool expression.
